Your questions about ductwork cleaning in Coney Hall
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Coney Hall?
The local authority for Coney Hall is Bromley council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
How do you handle parking and loading in Coney Hall?
Parking and loading in London need planning, so tell us about bays, permits and building rules when you book. If the building has a loading slot system, we will book into it.
How can I tell if my extract ducts are dirty?
Drips, smells and weak extraction are clues, but measuring is the reliable way to know. Grease thickness testing shows exactly where the duct stands.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line, and we will advise on what to do next.
Are you accredited?
Duct Doctor is a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.
What paperwork do you give after a duct clean?
Every clean comes with a photo report, plus a TR19 certificate when the whole system is cleaned. File them with the fire risk assessment.
When is the ductwork cleaned?
We plan the clean when you are not cooking. Overnight and weekend work is common, so no service is lost.
How far ahead should we book?
For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
Ductwork cleaning in Coney Hall
Between the canopy and the fan runs the ductwork, hidden above ceilings and inside walls. Every horizontal run and vertical riser collects grease along the way, and that is where a kitchen fire can travel. We clean it from the inside, through access panels, to BESA TR19® Grease. The work covers access panels, multi-storey ducts and vertical risers, and people most often call us about a rancid smell from the extract duct and high readings at a recent grease test.
London kitchens are often tucked into basements or the back of a building, with extract ducts that can climb several floors to discharge at roof level. In Coney Hall, as elsewhere in the capital, a long duct run means more access points to open and more grease to remove.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Run the extract fan throughout service
- Book the next clean before the recommended date
- File each certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Tell us if grease leaks from the ductwork
When the duct is cleaned as part of a full TR19® Grease clean, a TR19 certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. It shows when and where the clean was done and by whom.
The less grease gets past the canopy, the cleaner the duct stays. Keep the filters clean, well fitted and in place whenever you cook.

What else we do in Coney Hall
The process
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes a few hours for a short run, longer for long runs and tall risers. If your building in Coney Hall has sign-in rules, permits or key holders, mention them when you book.
- We start by working out how the duct runs and where it can be opened.
- Grease readings are taken at set points along the duct.
- Access panels are opened and heavy deposits scraped out by hand.
- Horizontal runs and risers are then degreased by the method that suits the deposit.
- Post-clean readings and pictures go into the report, with any unreachable section listed.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the system
- Have your last certificate or report to hand

Fixed quotes for ductwork cleaning in Coney Hall
Your quote is based on your site. We consider:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- How big the system is
- The number of sites or systems
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.
What we need to know
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- A few general shots of the system

What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
What happens if it’s left?
TR19® is not law, but the duty to manage fire risk is. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and grease in the duct is part of that. London buildings are shared, so a fire or failure in one system can reach the neighbours above and beside you.
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.

Coney Hall kitchens: local notes
Look up Coney Hall on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you’ll find about 74 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 31 takeaways and sandwich shops across Coney Hall and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Where they cook under a canopy, grease does not stop at the filters: it settles along the duct and up the riser. Food hygiene inspections in Coney Hall are the job of Bromley council’s environmental health team. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Fire safety in Coney Hall falls to London Fire Brigade. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as National Psychosis Unit (about 0.8 miles north-west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. A kitchen near West Wickham station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval. Bursars and site managers at schools such as Forest Academy tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Coney Hall and across Greater London. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
